Short summary
We present an unsupervised clustering methodology and post-clustering analysis framework that identifies recurring monsoon rainfall patterns and quantifies their transitions. Analysis reveals breaks are prolonged while monsoon depression are transient. The decomposition of frequency and intensity changes quantifies their contributions in long-term rainfall changes.
